Water Freeze Time Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Water Freeze Time (T) is:

\[ T = \frac{HF \cdot m}{P} \]

Where:

\( T \) is the time for the water to freeze (minutes)
\( HF \) is the heat of fusion of water (335,000 J/kg)
\( m \) is the mass of the water (kg)
\( P \) is the rate of heat extraction from the water (J/second)

What is Water Freezing Time?

Water freezing time is defined as the total amount of seconds it takes for a body of water to change from a liquid form to a solid form. The rate at which this occurs is directly proportional to the rate at which the heat is extracted from the water.
